Industrial Sensors in Israel – System-Level Measurement Solutions by VARIOHM

When engineers search for industrial sensors for industry, medical devices, or defense systems, they often begin with a component.

But in reality, most measurement failures are not caused by a faulty sensor — they are caused by the absence of system-level thinking.

“The sensor worked in the lab. It failed in the system.”

The issue is not the datasheet accuracy.
The issue is the disconnect between the sensor and:

  • Environmental conditions

  • Temperature variations

  • Mechanical loads

  • Electrical interface

  • Calibration strategy

  • Regulatory requirements

Reliable measurement is the result of proper system design — not the selection of a single component.

A Sensor Is Not a Product – It Is a Link in a System

Many engineers select sensors based on:

  • Measurement range

  • Nominal accuracy

  • Price

However, 0.1% accuracy is irrelevant if:

  • Thermal drift was not evaluated

  • Sealing is inadequate for humidity or dust

  • EMC conditions were not considered

  • Mechanical installation introduces side loads

  • No calibration process is defined

In real-world systems, measurement is a chain that includes:

  • Sensor

  • Mechanics

  • Electronics

  • Signal processing

  • Calibration

  • Control logic

When one link is weak, the entire system is compromised.

VARIOHM Group – A System-Level Measurement Approach

VARIOHM Group is a group of specialized manufacturers providing complementary sensing and control technologies:

  • Linear and rotary position sensors

  • Industrial pressure sensors and transmitters

  • Temperature sensors and thermal switches

  • Load cells and force / torque sensors

  • Limit switches and safety switches

  • Industrial and medical control interfaces

  • Sensor electronics and calibration equipment

When multiple sensing technologies are engineered together, the result is a more stable system with reduced integration risk.

System-Level Examples – What Real Measurement Looks Like

Industrial System

A hydraulic system typically integrates:

  • A pressure sensor

  • A temperature sensor

  • A linear position sensor

  • A safety limit switch

If each component is selected independently, mismatches in sealing level, connector type, or EMC tolerance may occur.

When the system is designed holistically, overall reliability increases significantly.

Medical System

An advanced medical device may integrate:

  • A footswitch or hand control interface

  • A position sensor

  • Safety switches

  • Strict regulatory compliance requirements

In such systems, there is no room for improvisation.
Each component must be part of a defined safety architecture.

Harsh Environment

Submersible or heavy industrial applications may require:

  • Sealed position sensors

  • Hermetically welded pressure transmitters

  • ATEX or IECEx approved components

  • Long-term thermal stability

A single component cannot solve the challenge — the entire measurement architecture must be engineered accordingly.

Common Mistakes in Measurement System Design

  • Selecting a sensor based on price alone

  • Ignoring temperature effects on accuracy

  • Incorrect mechanical installation

  • Lack of defined calibration process

  • Failure to evaluate electromagnetic environment

Most of these failures can be prevented at the architecture stage.

CASE STUDY – Stabilizing an Industrial Hydraulic Measurement System

The Challenge

An industrial manufacturer developed a precision hydraulic system including:

  • A pressure sensor

  • A linear position sensor

  • A temperature sensor

In laboratory conditions, performance was stable.
In the field, intermittent measurement deviations and false alarms began to appear.

Root Cause

System analysis revealed:

  • The pressure sensor experienced thermal drift under varying temperature conditions

  • The position sensor lacked adequate vibration isolation

  • The cable was not designed for a high-EMC industrial environment

Each component had been selected independently — without system-level integration planning.

The Solution

A system-level redesign was implemented:

  • Replacing the pressure transmitter with improved thermal stability

  • Switching to a vibration-resistant inductive position sensor

  • Upgrading connectors and cabling for EMC robustness

  • Defining a field calibration procedure

The Result

  • Significant reduction in measurement deviation

  • Long-term operational stability

  • Reduced service interventions

Conclusion: The problem was not a “bad sensor” — it was a non-systematic design approach.

FAQ – Industrial Sensors and Measurement Systems

What is the difference between a linear potentiometric sensor and an inductive position sensor?

A potentiometric linear sensor is contact-based and cost-effective.
An inductive position sensor is contactless, more resistant to wear and vibration, and better suited for harsh environments.

How should a pressure sensor be selected for industrial applications?

Key parameters include:

  • Pressure range

  • Temperature range

  • Sealing level

  • Thermal stability

  • Regulatory requirements

Selecting based on pressure range alone may lead to long-term measurement deviation.

What causes long-term measurement drift?

Common causes include:

  • Temperature fluctuations

  • Mechanical stress

  • Vibration

  • Component aging

  • Lack of periodic calibration

Is calibration necessary for industrial sensors?

Yes.
Even high-accuracy sensors require system-specific calibration to ensure long-term stability.

Can multiple sensor types be integrated within one system?

Yes — and in advanced systems, this is often essential.
Combining position, pressure, temperature, and force sensors improves performance and safety.
